# Deplane

> Deplane turns a folder of code into a running app at a public URL with one command.

Deplane is a platform as a service (PaaS) for deploying web apps, APIs, background workers, cron jobs and Postgres databases. It is an alternative to Vercel, Fly.io, Render, Railway and Heroku.

Key facts:

- Deploy from a folder (`deplane launch`), from the dashboard, or on every push to a GitHub repository, with a live preview for every pull request (optionally with its own empty Postgres database). First deploys take one to two minutes.
- Zero configuration: it detects Node (Next.js, Remix, Express, NestJS and more), Python (Django, FastAPI, Flask), Go, Ruby on Rails, PHP and Laravel, Java and Spring Boot, static sites, or uses a Dockerfile.
- Isolation: every app, build and database runs in its own microVM (Kata Containers) with its own kernel, not in containers sharing a kernel with other customers.
- Included: HTTPS on every app, custom domains with automatic certificates, managed Postgres 17 with continuous backups and point-in-time restore (7 days on the beta plan, with a second copy on a separate backup server), one-click templates (open-source apps such as Grafana, Linkding, Listmonk and Miniflux, and starters for common stacks), each deployed with its database and disk, workers and cron jobs, encrypted secrets, zero-downtime rollouts, one-step rollback, automatic rollback when errors spike after a deploy, autoscaling on CPU, sleep when idle, live logs, metrics (requests, errors, p95 latency, CPU, memory), alerts to Slack, Discord and webhooks (email is not set up yet), teams with an activity log.
- An AI assistant (in beta; it works once the platform operator has set it up) reads an app's real logs, metrics and builds, explains problems and proposes fixes (scale, roll back, redeploy, add a database, worker or domain, restore a database backup); nothing changes until the user confirms, and it never deletes.
- For AI tools: an MCP server at /mcp with OAuth (Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor connect in a minute; no deletes). For CI: every CLI command supports --json with stable exit codes; scoped CI tokens.
- Sign-in uses passkeys and a second factor; there are no passwords.
- Infrastructure: our own data centers in Europe (not AWS, Google Cloud or Azure).
- Plans: only the free Beta plan exists today. Pro ($15/month) and Team ($99/month) are coming soon and not on sale; there is no trial. Enterprise is by contact sales; dedicated servers and region choice are on the roadmap. The direction is that teams can grow from shared servers to dedicated servers and, on the 2027 roadmap, their own cluster or a private Deplane, without migrating.
- Status (October 2026): invite-only beta in Europe; request access at /beta.

## Docs

- [Deplane documentation](https://deplane.io/docs/index.md): Deplane turns a folder of code into a running app at a public URL with one command.
- [Install](https://deplane.io/docs/install.md): Install the deplane CLI, log in with your passkey, and check your setup.
- [Quickstart](https://deplane.io/docs/quickstart.md): Go from a folder of code to a live HTTPS URL with deplane launch, then deploy, watch, scale, and roll back.
- [Dashboard](https://deplane.io/docs/dashboard.md): Everything the CLI does, in your browser: deploy, watch builds live, read logs and metrics, roll back, scale, and manage domains, databases, variables, workers, and your team.
- [CLI reference](https://deplane.io/docs/cli.md): Every deplane command with its flags, a human example, and its --json output.
- [GitHub](https://deplane.io/docs/github.md): Connect a repository to an app: every push to its branch deploys, and every pull request gets its own preview address.
- [Scaling](https://deplane.io/docs/scaling.md): How many copies of your app run, how big each one is, when more start on their own, and when the app sleeps while nobody uses it.
- [Custom domains](https://deplane.io/docs/domains.md): Serve an app at your own domain, with HTTPS. Every app always keeps its own address at <app>.deplane.dev.
